  1, 212 books! Or 1, 213. I forgot if added The Making of Gone with the Wind to my count as the last book of the year, and I’m too tired to recount everything again. Still, you read that right. Over a 1,000 books in one year. If you don’t believe look down below at…

• Reading Log 2023

  Last year, I read an amazing 500 books so this year it was only reasonable that I reach a little more and try to get to 600. I didn’t. I got to 700 books!! And yes, maybe it’s considered “cheating” if you count those graphic novels and lower grade books that are easy to read…

• Twisted Tales: So This is Love Review

  Elizabeth Lim hits out of the park again with her Twisted Tale that transforms a princess I found boring and uninteresting to a riveting heroine to root for. And Lim doesn’t even change her personality!

• Twisted Tales: Reflection Review

  Now this was an excellent Twisted Tale. Not as dark as apparently the other books are with blood sacrifices and such, but I prefer it that way. This is rather an AU, a potential place for the story to go rather than a grittier and darker take on a tale we already know.
